[Rwp] adding effects to a midi track

[Adrián Mena]

Hello, I think I'm not explaining my self very well.
the track is already recorded, I use I keyboard and load a sforzando
instrument, it is a drum kit, but when I want to apply some effect to
it, using f, it does not open the menu where I select the plug-ins.
How can I apply effects to that kind of track?
should I freeze it?
How do I freeze that track?
Thank you for your help people.
